Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to compare recovery in healthy, active runners.

The main questions it aimed to answer were whether 7 day supplementation with Vistula TC attenuated:

* muscle function
* inflammation
* soreness following a marathon run.

Participants will either consume a spray-dried tart cherry supplement or a calorie-matched placebo-control for 7 days, and complete a marathon. Participants will perform functional tests, be assessed for their perceptual recovery and markers of inflammation and muscle damage via:

* maximal voluntary contractions
* counter movement jumps
* visual analog scales to assess soreness
* blood samples
